Yu Xian had no hope for this wretched old man. He glanced at Cai Wenji and said, "Miss Cai, do you have any good suggestions?"
Cai Yan was startled after hearing this, obviously not expecting Yu Xian to ask him this question.
She said timidly, "I'm not proficient in military affairs. I haven't studied the matter of war drums either."
Zuoqiu Junyi said dissatisfied, "You still don't believe me. I have walked on more bridges than you have walked on. It makes sense for me to say this."
Yu Xian said directly to Guan Hai, "Put the things away and take them home."
Zuoqiu Junyi was a little anxious, "It's easy to talk about the price. You make a price first, and I'll pay you back, so we can discuss it easily."
Hearing that this old man valued this thing so much, Yu Xian became even more reluctant to sell it.
At this moment, Wang Li, who had always been honest before, suddenly said, "No, when this thing was dug out just now, the noise was really scary. There were no drumsticks used at that time."
Zuoqiu Junyi gritted his teeth and looked at Wang Li for a while. He was shocked when he saw Yu Xian looking at him with a half-smile but not a smile. He quickly explained, "That thing just makes a sound when the Kui cowhide is struck, and it cannot bring out the true power of the Kui cow war drum at all."
, it’s nothing at all.”
Yu Xian was fine at first, but when he heard Zuoqiu Junyi's explanation, he really took a breath.
Just relying on the power of Kui Niu hide itself is quite powerful. It would be unimaginable if this Kui Niu war drum showed its full strength.
Yu Xian thought for a while and said to Cai Wenji, "Since you don't understand military matters, you should understand music theory! Just beat it like an ordinary drum and let me see what effect it has."
"Eh? Is that okay?"
Cai Yan looked eager to try.
"Let's try it." Yu Xian was very indifferent.
Cai Yan was much more cautious. She pondered the patterns on the drum back and forth and made up and down gestures with her hands.
After a while, she nodded to Yu Xian with some uncertainty.
Yu Xian signaled Guan Hai to stay away and let Cai Yan do what he did.
Cai Yan casually picked up a long oracle bone from the ground and beat it rhythmically on the Kui Niu war drum.
Cai Yan didn't have much strength, and the oracle bone only made a slight sound when it fell on the skin of Kui Niu.
Yu Xian felt the pressure from above, and it was indeed not that good.
Zuoqiu Junyi breathed a sigh of relief and became proud again.
Cai Yan was not affected at all. She waved her oracle bones and made a series of strikes.
The position of Cai Yan's striking echoes faintly with the patterns on the drum, and the rhythm carries the beauty of music.
Gradually, Yu Xian suddenly felt a desolate and tragic atmosphere.
Although the voice was not astonishingly powerful, it was like a surging ocean tide, carrying heavy power, impacting people's hearts wave after wave.
Yu Xian looked moved.
He listened carefully for a while, and when Cai Yan finished playing the song, he confirmed to Cai Yan, "Is it "No Clothes"?"
Cai Yan nodded, a little surprised.
"Has Taoist Yu also dabbled in the Book of Songs?"
How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear, and I share the same enemy with you!
How can I say that I have no clothes? I am in the same boat with you. When the king raised his army, I repaired my spear and halberd, and I worked together with you!
How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same clothes with you. The king raised his troops, repaired my armor and soldiers, and went with me!
This is the generous spirit of the Qin Dynasty.
Yu Xian let out a long breath, "That's it!"
Even if this war drum loses the powerful curse on it, the instrument itself is still extremely outstanding.
Once the formation pattern is activated according to the rhythm of the song, it can still exert considerable power.
Cai Yan fondly stroked the skin of the Kui Niu war drum and said with some regret, "Unfortunately, this war drum is too big. I can't hit some of the sounds. It would be better if it was smaller."
As Cai Yan stroked it, the pattern on the Kui Niu war drum emitted a faint light, and then shrank by a few points.
Not only was Cai Yan shocked, but Yu Xian was also so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.
This magic weapon is also very spiritual.
Yu Xian tried to say, "Make it smaller."
Cai Yan's eyes were shining, as if he had gotten a new toy, and he couldn't wait to say, "Make it smaller!"
When the sound of the Kui Niu war drum became quieter, he continued, "Lower it!"
Just like that, under the stunned eyes of everyone, a big drum with a drum head of five or six feet turned into a gadget only as big as a bell.
Cai Yan held the war drum in the palm of his hand and looked at it fondly.
Yu Xian looked at Zuoqiu Junyi with a sneer, "The old guy is really calculating."
Zuoqiu Junyi was obviously a little shocked.
"This is actually possible!"
Yu Xian spread his hands to Cai Yan and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Cai, for helping me with the tasting. I will certainly repay you generously in the future."
Cai Yan reluctantly placed the smaller war drum in Yu Xian's palm.
Zuoqiu Junyi couldn't help but muttered beside him, "You don't understand music, so holding it in your hand is a waste of treasure. Why not sell it to me?"
Yu Xian laughed, "I don't understand, doesn't Miss Cai understand?"
"Um?"
The meaning of Yu Xian's words immediately caused everyone to speculate.
Yu Xian didn't show off. He looked at Cai Yan and said, "I won't use it much if I keep this thing. I will give it to you in the future. When the time comes... you will naturally understand."
Yu Xian had already planned to hang the Kui Niu war drum around Dong Bai's neck when the problem of the five-color sacred cow was solved.
When Cai Yan meets Cai Yan in the future, he will naturally understand what he means by asking her to assist Dong Bai.
If Dong Bai had Cai Yan and Xu Huang to help him in both civil and military affairs, Yu Xian would not have to worry at all.
All choices still have to be left to them.
Yu Xian put away the Kui Niu War Drum. Zuoqiu Junyi, who had gained nothing, couldn't help but encourage him, "Since there are such good things in Luoyi, then the Royal City must also gain something. Why don't we take advantage of the right time and walk towards the Royal City?"
trip."
Yu Xian was very moved after hearing this. It was the darkest time before dawn. Even if he found nothing, it would not be difficult to escape intact.
What's more, being able to obtain such a rare magic weapon as the Kui Niu War Drum was completely worth Yu Xian's hard work this night.
Yu Xian cheered up and said to everyone, "Let's go to the royal city."
As he said that, he threw the Kui Niu war drum towards Guan Hai. He raised his chin towards the five-color sacred cow and said, "Try it."
Guan Hai took the war drum in his hand and walked forward boldly.
Until Guan Hai left the range of Luoyi Ghost City, the five-color sacred cow showed no intention of attacking.
It mooed unwillingly and slowly backed away.
Yu Xian was overjoyed. He laughed and said to everyone, "If you don't leave now, then you will have to wait until later!"
